	mkfs.jffs2 -e 0x2000

You need to erase the device first. Use the 'eraseall' utility:
	eraseall /dev/mtd0
Then you can use dd to put the image on the device.

Unfortunately, JFFS2 doesn't yet work on the DiskOnChip, because it uses 
NAND flash. JFFS v1 should probably work, or you can fix up JFFS2 to work 
too.
